At least one user had their timezone preference set to "Pacific/Bougainville" and were unable to login because that is no longer a valid timezone under HHVM.
Using php on terbium, new DateTimeZone('Pacific/Bougainville'); works fine. I logged into mw1090, tried the same thing and HHVM threw an exception.
On mw1090 in /usr/share/zoneinfo/Pacific/ there appears to be a file for Bougainville.

I installed the new HHVM package on beta, which includes Tim's patch at T74556, and I was able to register a user, log in, change the TZ to pacific/Bougainville and log back in. IDK if this is enough to assess that the new package fixes the bug.
I was able to set my own timezone preference to "Pacific/Bougainville' after upgrading the package.
